embodied femme body oil

This body oil contains two complementary plants that are important for the well-being of a female’s body.

The first is Mugwort (Artemisia vulgaris), notably mentioned in various world mythologies as a magical herb of vitality, protection, and feminine energy. Its botanical name ‘Artemisia’ comes from the Greek Goddess Artemis to whom this herb was sacred. Artemis was revered as a Goddess of fertility, creativity, and psychic ability. And so, as her herb goes, Mugwort has been traditionally used by herbalists to boost the mind's cognitive abilities, personal intuition, dream recollection and creativity. 

Mugwort also has a rich history of medicinal use across various cultures, particularly in traditional Chinese, European, and Hindu medicine. The plant contains essential oils, flavonoids, and sesquiterpene lactones, which contribute to its wide range of therapeutic properties. Research shows Mugwort helps induce a healthy all-round blood flow within the body, regulates menstrual cycles and supports a healthy digestive system.

Rose (Rosa centifolia) is the second protagonist in this oil, commonly known by herbalists as a beautifier, and also for its properties to tonify skin and muscles. Oiling your body with rose will support your skin’s health and natural glow.

Ylang Ylang essential oil, as the sensual and calming counterpart in this feminine trilogy, helps alleviate anxiety, improve mood, and promote feelings of well-being and confidence.
